PUPILS and staff at Pebble Brook Primary School celebrated 10 glorious years with their headteacher at the end of term.

Donna Reed is retiring from the Crewe school to spend more time with her family.

Mrs Reed was presented with her leaving gift by reception pupils on behalf of the whole school.

Parents, governors, staff and pupils all joined together to thank their ‘fantastic’ headteacher and wish her good luck for the future.

Deputy head Nikki Lawton will become the new headteacher in September.

The school has enjoyed a memorable year and one of the highlights was when Mrs Reed took some of the pupils to welcome back the Mercians during the homecoming parade in Crewe after they had completed a tour of Afghanistan.

There was also a trip to Chester Zoo and the PTA summer fair.

The fair was opened by Cheshire East mayor Dorothy Flude and pupils enjoyed fun fair rides thanks to a generous donation by Gresty residents.
